An end to Berozgaari!

This post is entirely dedicated to my berozgaari days. Days that made me doubt my abilities. Days which taught me the importance of a job. Days that tested my patience and faith. Days that could have broken me down completely but instead made me into a much stronger person.
A few days back I was cleaning my shelves and there I saw my college books..notes...registers...assigments...I sat down and had a careful look at them..All I could see was my hard work..days I had burnt the midnight oil..Slogging away with my college books..Making notes..Going through ten years..And what not.I wont say I am a nerd but I have always worked hard to get great marks. All that for just one aim...to start a brilliant career...to get a well paying job..I was very clear I dint want my first job to pay me mediocre salary..I wanted it to be excellent..So when I got an amazing offer on my campus I saw all my dreams getting fulfilled..I saw all my toiling years pay off..I packed my bags and went to Singapore when my college got over..I knew that awesome job awaited me back in India...after everything I went through i was sure this job was going to make me so busy that I dint have the time to think of anything else...I was so looking for wad to buying corporate clothes..Start earning..Starting a new life..And then it happened..As has often happened..N as I say.. zindagi ne tamacha maara! US recession came and took my job away.A job I was relying on completely.A job that paid me brilliantly.A job that was supposed to take me further in life.
I came back..Started applying in firms..I dint have the experience everyone was looking for. Every single person from my batch was working and me who got the second best offer wasn’t.
I waited my cellphone to ring. It did.I went for an interview.I was sitting with 10 other people.Most of them were not even my qualification. Obviously I was selected. They gave me a shitty offer. The work profile sucked.I chucked the job away. people said i shudnt hav chucked this job away when i dint have anything else in hand.but i stood by my belief in me.i said no way am i going to do a job that i see my juniors doing.
but that experience of sitting in a room with ten other people waiting to be interviewd sucks.its like those typical hindi scene movies.i was asking myself again and again why the hell am i sitting here??with people who are just half my qualifications??i came back extremely depressed.
All i could think of was why me?i complained to god as to all my hard work going to a waste..all my dreams of starting a great career crashed.it was my mom that was my source of strength.she told me to never ask why me again.we don’t ever say that when we are happy so why say it when we are sad.
I knew i had to channelize my energy in a different direction hence forgetting how this firm spoiled my career entirely i gathered all my strength.i decided i was not going to look at the problem but the solution.
So finally after four months of berozgaari (which turned out to be the most amazing time of my life..considering i did not let down on life..and had all the fun i could have possibly had!)
I got a job..a better one than my campus..i am going to join a multinational bank!with a great offer.
All i wanna say is if i could go through the entire experience with so much patience,so much faith in myself ,so much happiness (i remember being with friends ,raising a toast and sayin “heres to my berozgaari!” and cracking up with laughter the next moment) then it was all because of my faith in god.i knew god had plans for me.
If i have to thank someone for giving me the best time of my life in Singapore and Thailand,and a great career it has to be the firm that took away my first job. For had it not happened i wouldn’t have had those amazing three months in Singapore.i would have never walked along the beaches in Phuket.I wud have never done parasailing. And i would have never gotten my current job.you must have heard this a million times whatever happens ,happens for the best.All i wanna add is that its when the best happens we realize the truth of the previous statement.and hence we shudnt wait to be happy once the best has happend..we should go through any sorta experience that breaks us down with happiness and courage knowing that we will come out as a stronger person and its going to teach us about life what we would never really learn otherwise.
Ps- i am too sleepy to edit it now..pls bear with the length and the mistakes.
